22nd Aug 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
In good order here when last seen at the beginning of the year, winning over 1m4f in January before being beaten a head over today's distance the following month; holds claims if ready to roll after a break. |
2/1 |

2nd 10 (3) |
21st Feb 2026 Standard 1m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Has a patchy profile but he justified support when bouncing back with a strong-finishing win here (1m4f) last month; up 4lb but that was a cosy success and the form has been boosted by the runner-up since; interesting contender. |
4/1 |

1st 5 (1) |
24th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Won a 1m novice at Kempton in September 2023 but 0-10 in handicaps since; did catch the eye when third at Kempton (1m3f) back on AW in November but hasn't built on it twice since, finishing remote third at Chelmsford (1m6f) latterly; the return to 1m4f may help but others are more convincing. |

24th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 43y Class 5 |
9st 13lb |
Often slowly away but it hasn't prevented her from winning three times on the AW since October (9.4f-1m4f); this trip more suitable than the 1m she tackled at Bath 19 days ago; untried on faster than good. |
8/1 |

8th 4 (8) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
3-9 since a hood went on, including wins under Ashley Lewis at Wolverhampton (1m4f and 9.4f) on two of her last three starts; unraced over a trip this short since her pre-handicap days and the hood is removed; also unraced on turf since last July and none of her turf form matches this mark. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (1) |
23rd Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Recorded her second win when scoring over 1m4f here last month but she was a well-held fourth in follow-up bid at Southwell on Saturday; has a bit to prove after that and this is a quick turnaround. |

20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Positive start for the Charlie Clover yard, readily landing a small-field affair at Lingfield (1m5f, good to firm) in June; better form when runner-up both starts since, latterly over 1m6f here on good to firm; should give another good account. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 2 (4) |
8th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Positive start for the Charlie Clover yard, readily landing a small-field affair at Lingfield (1m5f, good to firm) in June; beaten favourite but bettered that winning RPR when second (well clear of rest) at Nottingham (1m6f, good to firm) five weeks ago; gets the vote. |
6/4 |
|
2nd 1 (3) |
4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Solid debut for his new yard, having been picked up from Simon Dow for 11,000gns, a fortnight ago and duly won a small-field affair easily last weekend; not had much racing on turf and a 6lb rise could well be manageable in current form. |

8th Jul 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with C&D success and has continued in good form, back from two months off with second of 14 over C&D four weeks ago; must enter calculations nudged up 1lb. |
5/1 |
|
2nd 8 (12) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 6 |

Made a winning start for current yard over C&D in January and has continued in good nick, set a lot to do when sixth of 15 in 1m4f Lingfield handicap in April; in the mix once more. |

17th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
His last win was in April 2025 but that was off 8lb higher at Southwell (1m3f, AW); hit the frame in two starts over C&D this spring and he ran another solid race when fifth of 14 at Kempton (1m) in May; seems tactically versatile and he should be in the mix again after a short break. |
11/2 |
|
5th 13 (1) |
27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Outsider of four when belatedly doubling his tally at Southwell last April (1m3f); hit the frame last two starts (1m2f) but not sure dropping back to 1m will see him play a bigger role this evening; Penfolds Grange looks connections' best hope. |
20/1 |
|
4th 10 (9) |
20th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
8st 9lb |
On a losing run and he's yet to hit top form this season, going keenly when a fading fourth of 11 over C&D in February; needs to take a step forward. |

Won three times here (1m/1m2f) before his spell in Ireland and showed the ability remains when third of ten over 1m2f at this course last month; only sixth back here again since, though. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

3rd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
7lb lower than when last successful here (1m4f) a year ago and has run some creditable races in the meantime, but he hasn't tackled a trip this short in almost two years; others more solid. |
8/1 |

7th 2 (4) |
28th Jun 2026 Standard 2m 0f 120y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Ran well when second of nine in returning cheekpieces at Leicester (1m4f, good) 15 days ago, but all seven wins have been on the AW; still 6lb lower than for the latest of those, but he attempts beyond 1m6f for the first time on his 63rd outing. |
9/4 |

2nd 2 (3) |
13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
All seven wins have been on the AW (1m2f-1m4f) and he ran creditably on his last two starts; however, he's yet to finish in the first three in five starts on turf and others are preferred; cheekpieces are back on for the first time since 2024. |

Maiden; respectable fifth over 1m3f at Kempton 17 days ago but Sonnerie Power and Voix De Bocelli were ahead of him; first-time cheekpieces worn on that occasion are now replaced by blinkers. |

23rd Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Seven-race maiden; showed broadly progressive form as a 2yo but has gone the other way this season; may be helped by this drop in grade off a reduced mark. |
12/1 |

7 (3) |
5th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Suffered a near miss on handicap debut at Kempton (7f) but has finished a well-held sixth in two runs since being gelded and this could be tougher again; what might help is now going beyond 1m, being a son of Ulysses. |

25th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 6 |

9st 7lb |
Made it 3-3 over C&D with two wins for Tom Queally, who's back up today, in June; didn't look to see out 1m4f in better company here last time, when hanging left as usual; this is more his level. |
8/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 198y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Revitalised 6yo who is on a hat-trick after two 1m2f course wins in June (good/good to firm); moves up from Class 6 today but this longer trip is probably in his favour and he remains well handicapped on older form. |
7/2 |

1st 1 (4) |
30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Took advantage of a drop in the weights when winning a 0-55 contest by a neck over C&D three weeks ago; 5lb rise puts him on his previous winning mark and although not the easiest of rides, Tom Queally knows him well (2-8 on him); major player. |
